2026 Wall Calendar Photo Contest
The people who grow America.
“Agriculture is the most healthy, the most useful, and the most noble employment of man.” – George Washington
Next year, ProAg will celebrate 100 years of protecting American farmers and ranchers.
To kick off the celebration, we’re making the ProAg Wall Calendar Photo Contest all about the people who grow America. So, bring out the photo albums — because we want to tell the story of American agriculture over generations. Here are some inspirational examples to get you started.
We’ll pick 12 winning photos for the calendar, which will hang in ProAg and agency offices across the United States. Winning photographers will receive a copy of the calendar and ProAg swag. The four grand prize winners will also receive an AMEX gift card.
Photographs must be original works. Anyone who submits an entry must verify on the submission form they own the rights to the image. No entries using generative AI will be considered. Please read the contest rules, details and photo specifications below before you submit your entries.
Check out this link for tips on scanning old photos.
Submissions will only be accepted via the form below until August 20, 2025.
